<p>Anticancer, antimicrobial and autoimmune disease, and anti-organ rejection therapy using cytotoxic agents is improved using cytokines to prevent, mitigate or reverse adverse radiation-induced or drug-induced toxicity, especially to hematopoietic cells. Cytotoxic agents can include radioisotopes, drugs, toxins and even unconjugated antibodies. A preferred cytokine is IL-1. Higher doses of cytotoxic agents can be administered and tolerated by the patient and dose-limiting marrow toxicity can be prevented, palliated or reversed using adjunct cytokine therapy.</p> |
